Home-made sub-micro RC helicopter

[aliahmedoli]

can anybody tel me hw to make it

[MiL0JoneS]

2:40 so that's what was making the buzzing noise haha

[rictheawesome]

how did you make the thing that cover the battery and how did you paint it

[tahustvedt]

@rictheawesome

The canopy was a gift from Mario at Micro-flight

I painted it using tamiya lexan paint.

[rictheawesome]

@tahustvedt thanks i just painted my helicopter with black paint and it looks great thanks for the advice :D 

[BunkeyTheMunkey1]

Make a tut outta this.

[spiez777]

wow man unbelievable!!! i have never seen the tiny heli going too fast in straight way like urs wid really impressive control even in outdoor flying...Great job!!!!!

[swapnil131097]

can u tell how did u make ot

[outbackjack1974]

Very nice, must be truly homemade, because it flys better than a store bought one. lol

[DeGonMan]

some insects are attracted to electricity/ electric currents/ devices LOL XP

[Drumybum]

this is not a home made unit but a modified purchased unit. It looks like several comercially avalible units of which I have one

[tahustvedt]

@Drumybum

Umm. No. I designed and built this in 2004.

[MarioIArguello]

@Drumybum I know tahus, he build it using same components I used in my design of the MIA 2001 DIY House Fly submicro helicopter which I also sold as a kit back around 2002. The same size helicopter very similar construction, GWS IPS motor for the main and very similar GWS nano servos and Gyros I used on he House Fly. I sent him the MIA Falcon canopy he shows in his video, so he is not using a recently purchased unit modified. Although nowadays it is so easy to make one of similar size.

2:40 a crew member?? rofl!

[theskills02]

is htre any website where u can learn how 2 make homemade helis?

[DeGonMan]

@theskills02 same lol im interested =D

[theskills02]

how did u make it?



[XTwina]

do u use a tail gyro or is it a controller directly connectet to the reciver?

[tahustvedt]

@XTwina

It uses an old 3-in-1 controller. The helicopter is almost six years old.

[9TailedFox344]

beautiful :)

[RCHelisAU]

man the tail rotor is loud as hell.

[he3r00]

Kudos, i really like it, I may even try to build one myslef ;) thanks for the flans :)

the best camera for this little guy is the iPod nano with the camera

[mouayad888]

i have discovered a motor that can go 120000 rpm that will make helicopters go 500mph.its true i will post it on ut very soon.

[beerpongmasterss]

thats bullshit, helicopters speed has nothing to do with rpm.

[gasattackmanliveca]

not true but there are factors that will stop that ratio like aro dynamcs and such will not suport that type of speed

[WestSouthAirsoftTeem]

@beerpongmasterss yes it does

[DerickZ316]

@beerpongmasterss Actually the higher RPM, while certainly not the only factor, do play a fairly major role in the top forward speed of any size helicopter. Not the RPM of the motor, but of the main blades.

[dacasman]

i love the sound

[colaemil]

cool man!

[Geminimissions]

Looks like the Exceed-RC Mini Spark with a different canopy and painted blades...

[dohnis]

WOW! How'd you make it go forwards and backwards?

[chrismofer]

mini collective

think its probably ccp....

but its micro size it could be like a blade mcx type system.

[We4JC]

that thing is freaken fast!!!!!!

[chrismofer]

i know its awsome!!!!

[AlienZygote010]

do you think the heli could withstand the weight of a small wireless video cam to make a UAV? what is the range of this awesome little invention of yours? how much time in the air does it have before battery replacement?

[tahustvedt]

I think it can carry around 30-40 g. I lifted a 1/4 full paper cup hanging in a string once.

The longest I have flown on one charge is ~12 minutes.

[AlienZygote010]

thanks for the answer. you certainly made a magnificent little toy there. i am trying to mull ideas around in my head right now to make a homemade UAV for surveillance. not for any particular reason other than fun

[YourFriendlyMe]

hey can you show me or make a vid. how you assembled it and how you connected the electronical parts and how you programmed them if you did. im asking this cause im building my own rc heli BTW sweet vid nice heli

[coolturtledude]

its a fast little bugger isn,t it! LOL

Good job though

[yellowblutac]

Very impressive. :)

[sbeyea8]
